Sidebar Suggestions

"extDescription" to "Sidebar for Chromium and Firefox" or like "Sidebar panels".
No option to disable the startpage?
RSS Panel work?
Some options (input-number) and the search engine list is covered in 1366*768, and more serious if adjusted layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.
No context menu support. See also https://github.com/eoger/tabcenter-redux.
The bookmark panel is stuck when there are 10k bookmarks.

Agree
Well, for now startpage hardcoded in the manifest and can not be disabled. I had experiments with injected startpage which can be disabled, but it works buggy in FF. But the main reason is that extension cannot inject iframe in startpage if it created by other extension or by default.
Works for me. What browser you use?
Accepted.
not sure about this. Anyway first priority is to fix bugs. I will think about it later.
Oo. I believe it because extension try to create fav icons for all of this bookmarks synchronically and it looks like "stuck". Need more experiments to check this theory. If you have time plz try to replace in "background.js" this line with newItem.domain = 'default';

Item 3: Firefox Nightly. "Add new RSS feed" button looks no effect, throw Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist.. Well, I found the reason that it needs to load on the current page, you need to check the current page is not the privileged page (like about:addons) and use the notifications API to remind.

Item 6: Big improvement, just load takes a few seconds for the first start.

7: A plan to adding Add-ons management panel?

It should open new tab if current page is privileged, i remember that it works before, but now for some reason it broken. I will look into this. :/

Ok, thx for testing. Now i have a clue.

Allow users to control which one is enabled or all disabled for each chrome_url_overrides properties.

It would be nice if they implement this functionality.

7: A plan to adding Add-ons management panel?

No. ( If I correctly understand what you mean. =) )

The bookmark panel is stuck when there are 10k bookmarks.

Can you tell me if it works better in latest version?

Nov 28 '17 16:11 zluca

Can you tell me if it works better in latest version?

0.3.4. It takes many seconds when enableing, high CPU usage.
If the bookmark panel is the last panel, it sometimes gets empty after it is enabled, Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist. hundreds and the Search box's placeholder are undefined. Switch to another panel and switch back is work, switch back take about 2~5 seconds.
Perhaps it is better to provides max result options? Such as show recent bookmarks only by default, max search results, max folders and sub-items, more... item to folder filter.

Nov 28 '17 17:11 yfdyh000

0.3.4.

plz test 0.3.5. ^^

Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist

Yep, annoying thing.

show recent bookmarks only by default

Good idea, it can work! Tomorrow i will try.

Nov 28 '17 17:11 zluca

0.3.5 looks no changes. You can copy and paste several times to get a lot of bookmarks for testing.

in Firefox I'm missing:

Synced Tabs Pocket List ScreenShoots

(in short, the items that are presented on Library)

Do any of this stand a chance???

Nov 29 '17 11:11 maverick74

@maverick74

Synced Tabs Pocket List

I need to make some research about this services. If they have good open API why not?

ScreenShoots

But why you need sidebar for making screenshots? There is a tons of extensions providing this feature.

Nov 29 '17 13:11 zluca

@zluca

about ScreenShots: i'm referring to the link/webpage that is open when one goes to Menu>Library>Screenshots https://screenshots.firefox.com/shots which contains one's screenshots, not the app to take screenshots.

Pocket List goes the same way: it's, apparently, just a webpage.

In another words, Pocket List and ScreenShots, from what i understand, is just supposed to be a link/webpage that is open in the sidebar.

On the other hand Synced Tabs, i believe, is an app and not a webpage.

Nov 29 '17 15:11 maverick74

is just supposed to be a link/webpage

That's how it looks from user view. =) Screenshots and Pocket have a build-in extensions which doing the job invisibly for user.

From what i see Pocket is the main candidate to implement in next big release. But no promises. :)

Nov 29 '17 18:11 zluca

LOL. It certainly looks pretty easy from where i stand. LOL

Looking forward for the improvements =)

Ok, lets face the truth this is never happen. 😃 But users ask me so much about disabling startpage so i will do it.

Dec 02 '17 07:12 zluca

yes because the all-in-one bar had it, the things on this list! But it had been disable due to the new firefox updates!

Dec 27 '17 00:12 limon36

is it possible to set the refresh interval of the RSS feeds?

Jan 15 '18 14:01 herbstgy

@herbstgy Options > Misc > RSS update period

Jan 15 '18 15:01 zluca

@zluca great, thx.

Jan 16 '18 09:01 herbstgy

Very good! Just what I was looking for (well vertical bookmarks bar (hover in/hover out)) but this seems promising. Worked in Opera without much glitch.

There's two ext's that u dev might find inspirational: Bookmarks Sidebar: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bookmark-sidebar/jdbnofccmhefkmjbkkdkfiicjkgofkdh?hl=en-US And: vTabs: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/vtabs/okpnlgbgcfchbicbhjmmhldhkbkfilce?hl=en-US

Open bookmark in new tab is really useful feature. Could you please implement it?

Mar 14 '18 12:03 edger78

@edger78 You should hold Ctrl button to open bookmark in new tab, or Shift to open in new window.

Mar 14 '18 12:03 zluca

Yes, I know that, thanks, wheel click also works this way. But simple click is very welcome option. Not only me using that. Not sure if it's too complex to implement it.

Mar 14 '18 13:03 edger78

@edger78 Ok now i got it. This option would be implemented, but no ETAs, because i need to finish current development.

Mar 14 '18 13:03 zluca

@zluca Thanks, sure. Take your time :) It's really great to have it finally.

Mar 14 '18 13:03 edger78

Hi, is it possible to somehow delete the older items in the RSS feed? they just keep piling up ever since I installed the addon. (which I love by the way)

Mar 30 '18 13:03 herbstgy

@herbstgy Older rss items should be deleted automatically, there is an option in 'misc' section to set maximum items per feed. But for some reason it not work. Probably i broke something during last code refactor. Thx for reporting this bug.

Mar 30 '18 13:03 zluca

@edger78 Check out 0.5.5 version.

Mar 31 '18 13:03 zluca

@zluca Hi, checked, no such option found - open bookmark in new tab. Default behavior the same.
